Acknowledments:
The Oregon German Shepherd Rescue would like to thank all of you, for your continued
support of our organization. You generously give us your time, financial resources, and
touch the lives of so many homeless German Shepherd's with what you do.

Thank You to the following supporters!

Transporters/Drivers:
We would like to offer HUGE thanks Travis Kjemperud, and Heather Bare, for the endless
miles they travel on I-5, picking up and delivering dogs. These two troopers are ready to
go on a moment's notice. They have traveled as far North as Bothell Washington, along
the coast, and many places in between.
Travis and Heather do home visits, deliver dogs to their new homes, and pickup dogs
needing rescued. They drop off Shepherds at vet appointments, as well as pick them up.
These are two, tireless, young people. Without their help we would not be able to keep up
with all the requests we receive.

Webmaster
We are forever thankful for our wonderful web master, Stacy Meshishnek.
Stacy has worked hard to get us up and running. She has been so patient of our
questions, and additions. We are very proud of our site. You can contact Stacy by looking

Adoptions, Training & Evaluations:
We are always grateful , and appreciative of our adoptions guru, and financial manager.
Dave Meshishnek has a way with both man, and beast. He spends endless hours on the
phone with excited adopters. Dave has a way of matching the right dog, to the right owner.
Dave is also very gifted with our more challenging dogs. They just seem to know he is a
man to be trusted. Without Dave many German Shepherds would not have the opportunity
of adoption. Way to go Dave.

Our Founder
Paula Lynch, our founder and tireless leader spends more hours than the calendar will
allow, dedicated to improving the rescue and maximizing our possibilites of helping
countless lives. She has personally sponsored the successful rehabilitation of an
astounding number of animals that most would consider a lost cause. We thank her for her
insight and so do the wonderful animals and their new loving families.

We recognize the following Shelters, for their efforts in reducing the numbers of
euthanized German Shepherd Dogs.

The Oregon German Shepherd Rescue thanks you for our partnership.

Support Acknowledgements:
The Oregon German Shepherd Rescue was modeled after the successful Washington
German Shepherd Rescue. Over the years Cara has guided the founder of Oregon
German Shepherd Rescue. Through Cara's open sharing of information we were able to
get off the ground. We appreciate all the time, and information sharing that was offered to
us.

Medical Support:
Where would any rescue be without the backing of a kind, and compassionate
veterinarian?
We are very fortunate to work with Dr. Bean and Dr. Bertelsen. These men go above, and
beyond for our group. The staff never rolls their eyes, (at least when I am looking) when I
come rushing in with an animal in need. They just smile, and offer kindness, and emotional
support. They are truly our hero's.

I would also like to thank Karen Riley, my friend. You are my rock in a crisis. I hope I can
offer the same support to you one day.

This list will grow as we grow. If we have neglected anyone, please let us know. We want
the community to know who our friends are.
